Biggers Story

A startling crime in one
of New York’s sophisticated “pent-houses” starts off the adventures in “Charlie Chan’s Chance,”
the new mystery-thriller opening today. Warner Oland again has the charming role of Chan, and the other featured players include Linda
Watkins, H.B. Warner, Marion Nixon, James Kirkwood and Alexander Kirkland. A splendid program of short screen
subjects rounds out the new program. Among these is a hilarious two-reel comedy, “On the Loose,” starring Zasu
Pitts and Thelma Todd; a Mickey Mouse cartoon, a new "Fishing Adventure," and the Paramount News.
